The wildlife park Kolmården in Norrköping, Sweden, asked for a device that could visually feedback how dolphins use their ultrasound signals while echolocating objects. By recording the sound from the dolphin, process the sound and then create a visual feedback by having LED's flash in different frequencies, depending on the distance between dolphin and device. The purpose of the device is havVisual response to dolphin echolocation It is well known that dolphins use echolocation but how about watching what actually happens? A device that shows the audience some of the information contained within the emitted ultrasonic waves. It is a small fish look-alike device that is created to simulate how the dolphins behave while hunting. By picking up the echolocation signals sent out from the

Popular Abstract in English Alcohols and aldehydes are used in the chemical industry largely as a starting material for the manufacture of a wide range of products. They are also used as such in various industrial applications. The flexibility is due mainly to the functionalities of the alcohols and aldehydes being hydroxylic and carbonylic, respectively. Much interest is directed nowadays at convNowadays, transition metal oxide catalysts are employed to a large extent in many chemical processes for the selective production of chemicals and intermediates. Although metal oxides are mostly known as oxidation catalysts, they can successfully catalyze a wide range of reactions, such as dehydration. Two different processes have been studied in the present work: the selective oxidation of methan

Some seabirds we encounter only fleetingly, as they fly by as we walk along the beach, or perhaps meet far out at sea when we take a boat trip. Others though we are more familiar with, such as the ‘seagulls’ that many will not even turn their head to appreciate. Yet, all seabirds have remarkable stories to tell, and we are fortunate now to live at a time where we can follow individual birds as theMost seabirds breed colonially, at which time they make central-place foraging trips. Parents must collect food both for themselves and for egg production/chick-rearing. How should they forage? I followed five species across two sites in Sweden in the Baltic Sea using GPS and time-depth recorder (TDR) devices, giving information on both flight and diving activity. I use a movement ecology approach

This study analyses the constitutive power of narratives in relation to a retroliberal paradigm shift in EU development policy by focusing on blended finance targeting sub-Saharan Africa. This study builds on the claims of Mawdsley (2015) that a reconfiguration of global development policy has challenged the North ontologically, which have been accompanied with the emergence of retroliberalism. Th

In football, as well as in most sports, the question about politics being within it are highly debated. Questions related to nationalism, homophobia, racism, and sexism are all seen as permeating the sport. This is simultaneously topics that is facing resistance, especially through anti-racism-, and pro-LGBTQ+ campaigns. Although, the question remains, and football organisations are trying to deal

Traditional risk assessment frameworks have been focused primarily on the factors of likelihood and impact, utilizing either a numerical (e.g. 1 to 5) or qualitative (e.g.low,medium, high) rating scale, resulting in the traditional two dimensional framework. The challenge of this model is that the focus is too narrow to eectively assess constantly changing risk environments and fails to dierentiat

Circular building design could significantly reduce the environmental impact of buildings and the pressure on natural resources. However, most buildings today are not designed according to the principles of the circular economy. Most literature has focused on either methods for quantifying the lifecycle analysis of buildings and materials, or on innovative circular building materials, but not much

Premiär 14 oktober 2024 Travelling and seeing things anew were essential to the writing of one of the most beloved and translated Swedish poets of modern times, Tomas Tranströmer. Before receiving the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2011, he had already been translated into around 60 languages and had travelled the world to meet his audience in person. Alongside his writing, he was an engaged and att

Effects of flow are a fundamental part of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since almost every part of the body contains some kind of flow, the effects are seen in generally all MR images. The presence of flow in an image slice may be a vast source of artefacts but the effects of flow can also be used for diagnostic purposes, for example in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). In MRA, flow effect

Mass migrations are a phenomenon of all times. Notably, following the Second World War, there have been huge migration movements and decolonisation processes, particularly by the Germans and the Jews, but also by Roma and other groups. Parallel to that, in 1963, Protocol No. 4 to the Convention was signed, with Article 4 prohibiting the collective expulsion of aliens. In 2020, 3,6% of the populati

Situated in the intersection of the literature on QoL and lifestyle migration, this paper contributes to the discussion of three subjective components of QoL after migrating to another country. These are hedonic (happiness), evaluative (life satisfaction) and eudaimonic (having a purposeful or worthwhile life). Based on 36 in-depth interviews to Swedish citizens permanently living in Portugal, a g

I dagens samhälle kämpar företag för att höras och synas i det överflöd av information som finns tillgänglig. Ett särskiljande kännetecken har därmed blivit ett mycket viktigt kommunikationsmedel för företag. I detta kännetecken ligger ofta ett betydande värde i form av goodwill och image och attityd hos förbrukarna. Inte sällan är det hela koncept som förmedlas i ett komplicerat byggande av relat

Abstract Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder globally and a major cause of disabiltiy with the knee joint responsible for 80% of the disease burden. Progressive degenerative changes in cartilage tissue result in deterioration and loss of articular cartilage. Cartilage has poor capacity of healing and the detection of degeneration usually occurs at a stage of progressi

This thesis discusses the provisions of the Rotterdam Rules on electronic transport records. Among the issues addressed are the current law on bills of lading and attempts at establishing systems issuing electronic bills of lading. The theses then goes on to discuss and analyse the provisions on electronic transport records in detail, their history and objective, along with related provisions on t

In the last decade, the idea of total defence – a whole-of-society approach integrating civilian and military capabilities – has gained renewed prominence in Europe, including within the European Union (EU). Concurrently, the concept of strategic autonomy – the EU’s ability to act independently – has emerged as a central feature in its security policy, driving ambitions for ‘a quantum leap forward

This study has examined the relationship between the increase in consumption of white snus among Generation Z in Sweden and the branding strategies used by the nicotine brand LYFT. The purpose of this research has been to gain an understanding of how a brand can market a regulated product to a young consumer segment by conducting strategic communication prefered by these young individuals. The bac

The procedure within the administrative field of law is ruled by norms and principles. The framework governing differs from the procedural law in civil court. The grounds for administrative claims and appeal are established in 29 and 30 §§ FPL. There are also a number of other procedural laws with their own rules for appeals, to which FPL is subsidiary. Amongst the other laws is the law that regul

Uppsatsen behandlar skiljedomstolen Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) som med sitt säte i Lausanne i Schweiz har varit den huvudsakliga globala skiljedomstolen vid sporträttsliga tvister sedan grundandet 1981. CAS har många fördelar som tex snabba och effektiva avgöranden av skiljedomare med kompetens inom sporträtt, men dess opartiskhet och självständighet har ständigt ifrågasatts genom åren. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is a global arbitration court which has ruled in sports law since its establishment in 1981. The arbitration court is the main court in sport disputes and acts as the last resort where subjects of sport can appeal decisions from different sport bodies to which they are bound and that includes an arbitration clause to CAS in the relevant statute. Although pa
